WWE Royal Rumble 2021 is set to take place this weekend on January 31, 2021. This year's edition will be the most unique version of the Royal Rumble pay-per-view as it will take place inside the WWE ThunderDome at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, with no live fans in attendance.
This year would witness the fourth annual women's Royal Rumble match. A very interesting thing about this year's match is that there are no clear favorites, making it even more exciting for fans to watch and find out who emerges victorious and books a championship match at WrestleMania 37.
As of the writing of this article, a total of 12 women have been officially announced for the match, hence fans can expect several surprise entrants in the women's match this year.
In this article, let's take a look at five possible finishes for the 2021 women's Royal Rumble match. Be sure to comment down and let us know your predictions.
#5 Bianca Belair gets her big moment at WWE Royal Rumble 2021
The EST of WWE, Bianca Belair had an impressive outing last year in the 2020 women's Royal Rumble match. She entered the match at No. 2 and lasted for over 30 minutes, eliminating a record eight women Superstars from the match before getting eliminated by the eventual winner, Charlotte Flair.
Bianca Belair has since joined the main roster full-time and is currently part of the Blue brand where she is feuding with former SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley. Bianca Belair has already been announced to enter this year's women's Royal Rumble match and she heads into the match as a major favorite.
2021 might just be the year of Bianca Belair in WWE who definitely has the potential to become the next big star in the women's division of WWE. And that journey to the top might begin this weekend by her winning the Royal Rumble match. Bianca Belair vs. Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women's title at WrestleMania 37? Yes, please
#4 Rhea Ripley dominates and wins the 2021 women's Royal Rumble match
Royal Rumble has been a major platform for WWE to elevate a Superstar to the top of the mountain. Last year, we saw former NXT Women's Champion Shayna Baszler enter the Royal Rumble at No. 30, destroy everyone in the ring, and almost win the match before getting eliminated last at the hands of Charlotte Flair.
WWE might book another former NXT Women's Champion in a similar way this year but go all the way to let her win the match this time. Yes, we are talking about the first-ever NXT UK Women's Champion Rhea Ripley. Recent reports suggest that Rhea Ripley is done with NXT and could join the main roster anytime. What better way to announce your entry on the main roster than by winning the Royal Rumble match and challenging the champion.
In the last few years, we've seen several NXT Superstars enter the Royal Rumble and deliver a great performance. However, none of them has managed to actually win the match. That could change this year with Rhea Ripley entering the Royal Rumble and winning it. Rhea Ripley vs. Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women's Championship at WrestleMania 37 would be a great match.
#3 Ronda Rousey makes her massive return and wins the 2021 women's Royal Rumble match
Royal Rumble is the season of returns as it is the official beginning of the Road to WrestleMania. While this year we might not witness fans in the arena going bonkers when a Superstar returns or debuts in the Royal Rumble match, the excitement is still there.
One of the biggest names that could return in the women's Royal Rumble match this year is former RAW Women's Champion Ronda Rousey. The UFC Hall of Famer last appeared for WWE at WrestleMania 35 in 2019 where she dropped her RAW Women's Championship to Becky Lynch in the historic first-ever women's WrestleMania main event.
Ronda Rousey returning at WWE Royal Rumble 2021 and going on to win the match could bring massive mainstream attention to WrestleMania 37, which is set to have live fans in attendance. Ronda Rousey taking on either Asuka for the RAW Women's Championship or Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women's Championship would be an amazing feud and a match.
#2 Charlotte Flair wins her second consecutive Royal Rumble match
Winning consecutive Royal Rumble matches is a feat that no woman has achieved yet in the very short span of four years since the women's Royal Rumble match has been introduced. However, that might happen this year with Charlotte Flair repeating her heroics from last year and winning the match again this year.
Charlotte Flair, the winner of the 2020 Royal Rumble match, has already been announced as a participant in the match this year. Interestingly, she has a great storyline ready if she wins the match once again this year.
Charlotte Flair currently holds the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships with Asuka, who is also the RAW Women's Champion. The Queen has already teased going after her title. She might do the same by winning the Rumble this year and challenging Asuka for the RAW Women's Championship at WrestleMania 37.
It was in 2018 when Asuka won the first-ever women's Royal Rumble match and challenged Charlotte Flair for the SmackDown Women's Championship at WrestleMania 34. Could history repeat itself again this year, only with the roles reversed this time around?
#1 Alexa Bliss taps into her dark side to win the 2021 women's Royal Rumble match; The Fiend makes an appearance
One of the biggest names that have been announced for this year's women's Royal Rumble match is that of Alexa Bliss. The former RAW and SmackDown Women's Champion, Alexa Bliss has been on a different level since joining hands with the sinister force of 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt on RAW.
However, since Randy Orton burned The Fiend at WWE TLC 2020, the character of Alexa Bliss has become so much more dark and sinister. From attacking Orton with a fireball to transforming into her darker version mid-match, everything Bliss has done recently has been gold.
We've already seen Alexa Bliss pin RAW Women's Champion Asuka in a match on RAW last week and there's a get story that these two could tell with a proper feud if Bliss wins the Royal Rumble this year. This could also lead to Asuka bringing out her dark side, appearing with the devilish face paint that she used to wear during her time in Japan.
The 2021 women's Royal Rumble match could see Alexa Bliss enter the match as her smiling Firefly Fun House persona only to tap into her dark side mid-match and destroy everyone in the match to win it. For a major twist, 'The Fiend' Bray Wyatt could return after the match and raise the hand of the 2021 women's Royal Rumble winner, Alexa Bliss.
